Why do women who believe in reincarnation think they were Cleopatra in a previous life? I'm convinced I was a Chinese peasant in a previous life, just on the statistics. Indians treated their squaws terribly. I was surprised that virtually every one of my ancestors came here in the 1700s.

Cindy Hamilton I was not really that interested myself until I actually started looking and found out how much I "knew" that was wrong. The assumption always was that a significant number of us were fairly recent immigrants (100-150 years ago) but the reality is every one I have tracked came here in the 1700s or before. One of the lines I thought would be easy, turned out to dead end in 1827 but virtually every other branch I have been able to get back to a boat. (The oldest couple in the late 1600s) They pretty much all are British Isles people (England, Scotland Ireland). The German is the one I can't get to a boat and I still have my Indian who just falls out of the sky. She either eloped with a white guy and was banished by her family or something else strange happened. I am waiting for the DNA. If it doesn't come back 94% UK, a splash of German and maybe some Indian, somebody was seeing a pony express rider on the side ;-) |

I looked at my surname. Looks like I'm from the Vikings They invaded the UK circa 1066 and installed a Queen? Guess we were just passing through :-) I bet they have a mug with your authentic coat of arms on it ... in stock, they promise. |
